Vance Wheaton '23 Recruiting Profile

I have been kicking a ball from the time I started learning how to walk. Soccer has and will always be my life, and to have the opportunity to play in university makes it even better. I would be the best candidate for your team because I am an outgoing social person. I have played on many different teams before and always fit right in. I was captain of my club and was by far the most vocal person in the league. After switching over to goalkeeper I became twice as more vocal, twice the better leader, and twice the better player. What separates me from other players and goalkeepers is that I am an all-around athlete.  Basketball, baseball, golf, tennis, long-distance,  and water polo are all sports I enjoy playing but are all sports I competed in and won in. After switching schools in seventh grade, I thought making friends and adjusting to the IB would be difficult, but it wasn't. I was not shy and tried to get the best relationship possible with my peers and teachers. I made really good friends who helped me make more serious connections in the soccer world in The Bahamas.  Switching to the IB was not an easy task, but I was able to understand what was happening around me and got and maintained good grades. Some classes were more difficult than others but I would always give 110 percent of what I had.
